  • Tyler Roberson Cuts List to 3

    Share Zagsblog Share Zagsblog
    Tyler Roberson, one of the top small forwards in the Class of 2013 out of Roselle (N.J.) Catholic, will be contributing periodically to ZAGSBLOG entering his senior season.

    In this entry, he cuts his list to three schools:

    After taking my visit to Villanova this weekend I’ve decided to no longer postpone cutting my list to three schools.

    I won’t be taking my visit to Kentucky and will most likely be making my final decision on where I’ll be playing collegiate ball within the next few weeks. I appreciate all six of the schools on my list but the three schools I’ve decided to keep on my list are Kansas, Syracuse and Villanova.

    Kansas – When I visited Kansas I got a better feel for the school and got to see exactly what they would expect from me in their system. I also got to see the campus and got a chance to watch the team practice. Coach [Bill] Self was honest with me and answered my questions. I got to talk to the players in the team and hang out with them while on my visit.

    Syracuse – While I was at Syracuse I had a chance to watch the football game which was a lot of fun. I hung around the team, and talked to them about the program. I also saw the campus and where the team practices. The fans take pride in the program and seemed like they make their players seem appreciated.

    Villanova – I visited Villanova this past weekend and attended their Midnight Madness.  I had fun and really enjoyed it.  Although I was only at Villanova for a day I felt at home and knew after the visit that I didn’t need to take my last visit.

    (Roberson had previously also considered Kentucky, Rutgers and SMU.)
